This book was so cozy!! The characters were so loveable, the stakes low but high enough to be deeply invested.

The magic system is delightful, I loved Mika, Jamie, and everyone else. This is the epitome of found family and it made me all warm and cozy. 

I do feel that I have to warn people, I did she'd a few tears during this book, and I had not expected it and was on a train. So be warned. (they were so worth it though). 

It's also proof that the chipper protagonist gets with grumpy, mean, seemingly uncaring person with heart of gold is not a bad trope, if you actually make sure the person is just grumpy, does like the protagonist and has a heart of gold! Instead of just being awful to the protagonist all the time and then all of a sudden also being in love???

This was a super cute book about witches. I really enjoyed the main love story the most but Ian and Ken’s love story was also extremely sweet. I definitely love the character growth and the children are entertaining. I would’ve enjoyed more smut but I will live. Definitely a sweet entertaining book that I couldn’t put down and recommend.
